EXPLANATIONS (outdated):

Spoiler: show

Tireless defensive or attacking midfielder, Iniesta has won over 20 caps and scored 4 goals for Spain since making his international debut in 2006. He was part of the Spanish squad at the 2006 FIFA World Cup and made one appearance during the tournament. He played an important role in helping Spain qualify for Euro 2008 after scoring three important goals and providing goal scoring assists for the strikers. He plays club football for Spanish giants Barcelona where he is a first team regular and is popular with the club's supporters. He has produced some impressive form for Barcelona over the last two seasons and has made over 150 appearances for the club since 2002. Iniesta moves the ball around well in the midfield, has a good burst of pace on the ball and provides defence splitting passes for his team mates, he also has a high work rate, good shooting ability and adds a goal scoring threat to the midfield.

CLASSIC SET(S): 2009-2011 & 2004-2006

Agility ("explosive power") is so brutally overpowered in PES 2012 that I tend to use much lower standards than for PES 2011 regarding the stat, I have Iniesta on 83 in example... but as I say it's a completely different standard (I have CRonaldo on greens).

[vinnie]

some genius control in there no?



His short pass accuracy is also extremely tidy and precise.

[Alex]

Might sound to much ,but sometimes he gives me the impression that he is a 97 TEC. There are moments where I really can't say who is better in this area between him and Messi. Same about Ibrahimovic. Played a very good game yesterday. Impossible to steal to ball from him.

[jurgens]

I kinda agree with 89 DS,

[Los Muchachos]

But his Tech can be increased by 1 point. I dont see his Tech lower than Messi.

[Yazid]

I could agree with 97 Tech tbh

[Albo7]

Whoever desagrees with giving Iniesta a red DS, should be shot.

[Alexalibur]

I don't remember the reason why it was decreased, it was 95 if my memory serves me right.

[jurgens]

if hes red ds, then so is david silva

[vinnie]

I don't think he's quite a red DS, a low orange DS at best... He looks extraordinarily fast on the ball, but it's more his gliding movement style that makes him look that way. He keeps as much speed on the ball as 89-91 would have him.

[TBD]

I think he needs an increase in DS by one or maybe two points, he shows us an amazing pace especially in last few matches.

I think so too, would bring him back to orange. Maybe red was a bit too much, but when Iniesta wans, and It's quite often, he mantains an incredible amount of speed in the ball. He can even hold red speed, but for what he sometimes does, which is pure DA, showing the ball without giving It away and then accelerating, the best middle term would be a low orange. Thoughts, anyone? Also, Jurgens, which was one of the main givers for his current DA, what do you think?

[CHarper]

agree with you, both players have similar qualities, although Iniesta is in a step higher than Silva.

i had qpes football patch from month of march , iniesta had 95 DS , later update saw him sit on 88 , if i remember correctly everyone got decrease in DS , Xavi went from 83 to green value , Thiago from 88 to 80 , etc.
I would agree with Iniesta high orange or even 95 DS , wouldn't argue about Silva's DS to high oranges either , he needs to sit few points behind Iniesta , their green TS would make them more real with such a high DS value

[tasmin]

agree with orange DS.but what about agility ? he is easily an orange

[jurgens]

I think he needs an increase in DS by one or maybe two points, he shows us an amazing pace especially in last few matches.

Also, Jurgens, which was one of the main givers for his current DA, what do you think?

I think hes high 80's. I think there are a lot of players in the world as fast on the ball or much faster. If he went up to 90's then players like Zanetti and silva would also need values like that, but I wouldn't agree with that.

[Fixer]

Err to avoid confusions with anyone who reads that, I actually meant DS.

[vinnie]

I still think DS 89 is more then enough. at MOST i would say he can be around 91 DS.

[MrEskola]

90 or 89 for DS, not more imo.

[Los Muchachos]

89 DS IMO
